As the Manager of Turbomachinery Engineering, you will lead the team through the design, analysis, and development of all of Relativity’s turbomachinery products.

You will be responsible for shaping how turbomachinery is designed, developed, and evaluated at Relativity, setting team and department-wide roadmaps to support the development of Terran-R.

The Propulsion team at Relativity is focused on developing and delivering highly performant and manufacturable engines for Terran R. Engineers are responsible for the entire lifecycle of their parts, from initial design through production to qualification and flight. The team fosters a culture of bottoms-up decision-making, free from technical gatekeeping, where ownership and accountability are key at all levels. But designing engines with a quarter million pounds of thrust is just the beginning. As the flight configuration enters qualification, the team is now exploring modifications for future engines, including thrust upgrades, new cycles, and design for mass production.
